Abstract
A half bridge circuit including an isolation substrate, a metal layer on one surface of the isolation substrate, a power loop substrate on the metal layer, an upper switch on the power loop substrate, a lower switch on the power loop substrate and coupled to the upper switch, a capacitor on the power loop substrate and coupled to the upper switch, a first via through the power loop substrate and coupled between the lower switch and the metal layer, and a second via through the power loop substrate and coupled between the capacitor and the metal layer, wherein the power loop substrate has a height and separates the metal layer from the upper switch, lower switch and capacitor by the height.
